While some domains that rely on computing systems are satisfied with the performance gains that are continuously delivered from processor manufacturers, others require performance that can only be attained through massive parallelism. High-performance computing is for those that need the highest performance in order to solve many of today’s most difficult scientific challenges.

For this report, DDN performed a number of experimental benchmarks to attain optimal IO rates for Paradigm Echos application workloads. It present results from IO intensive Echos micro-benchmarks to illustrate the DDN GRIDScaler performance benefits and provide some detail to aid optimal job packing in 40G Ethernet clusters. To find out the results download this guide.
